NXP MPL3115A2R1

The MPL3150A2S is a compact, piezoresistive, absolute pressure sensor with an I²C digital interface. MPL3150A2S has a wide operating range of 50kPa to 150kPa. The MEMS is temperature compensated utilizing an on-chip temperature sensor. The pressure and temperature data is fed into a high-resolution ADC to provide fully compensated and digitized outputs for pressure in Pascals and temperature in °C. The internal processing in MPL3150A2S removes compensation and unit conversion load from the system MCU, simplifying system design. MPL3150A2S's advanced ASIC has multiple user programmable modes such as power saving, interrupt and autonomous data acquisition modes, including programmed acquisition cycle timing, and poll-only modes. Typical active supply current is 40 μA per measurement-second and is offered in a 5mm×3mm×1.1mm LGA RoHS compliant package.
